The complaint was filed on February 3 and unsealed on February 4. After a hearing Wednesday Bogoslavski was ordered to be detained pending trial. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith the help of the Threats of Mass Violence state law passed last year, my office was able to work with Cheverly Police to detain Mr. Bogoslavski and obtain a warrant which led to the removal of firearms from his home,\u201d Prince George\u2019s County State\u2019s Attorney Angela D. Alsobrooks said. \u201cI want to thank all of our law enforcement partners for their quick actions that removed Mr. Bogoslavski from our community and may have prevented a tragedy.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>According to the affidavit a federal employee who worked in the U.S. Capitol received text messages from Bogoslavski stating that he was planning to come to the employee\u2019s work place with guns and shoot the employee and others. The affidavit includes portions of the alleged text conversation. One of the alleged texts states; \u201cIM COMING AND SHOOTING ANYONE IN MY F*****G WAY\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>AKO says that Bogoslavski is indeed a retired Sergeant E-5 and his last assignment was at the Warrior Transition unit at Fort Belvoir, VA. But I guess that this &#8220;Threats of Mass Violence state law&#8221; is only useful for  removing veterans from Maryland&#8217;s communities and not random civilians who send death threats across state lines.<\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"http:\/\/home.toshiba.com\/news\/read\/category\/us\/hashtag\/News\/article\/the_associated_press-veteran_charged_with_threatening_to_shoot_spouse_a-ap\">Toshiba<\/a>, Bogoslavski&#8217;s behavior was related to a domestic dispute, a tiny fact that the Fox Baltimore article left out;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>According to an affidavit, a U.S. Senate staff member married to Bogoslavski received threatening text messages Monday. The spouse said Bogoslavski planned to come to the Capitol with guns and shoot the staffer and others. Bogoslavski also is accused of threatening &#8220;to die suicide by cop.&#8221; The Cheverly Police Department took him into custody that day.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Of course, that doesn&#8217;t mitigate his threats, but at least it doesn&#8217;t make him look like a berserker anti-government veteran nutjob.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Someone sent us a link to a Fox Baltimore article about this Michael Bogoslavski who was &hellip; <a title=\"Michael Bogoslavski; MD vet threatens &#8220;mass violence&#8221; in DC\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=58076\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Michael Bogoslavski; MD vet threatens &#8220;mass violence&#8221; in DC<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[84],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-58076","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-military-issues"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58076","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=58076"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58076\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=58076"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=58076"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=58076"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
